John Watson // March 2nd, 2009

A winner has been chosen! Borrowlenses selected Bryan who wants to get his hands on the Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8 AF DX. Congratulations! Thanks for playing, everybody.

What better way to get acquainted with online lens rentals than with a free rental? The folks at BorrowLenses.com contacted me over the weekend and generously offered Photodoto readers another chance to receive a free 2-week lens rental. This is the second promotion we’ve done with them. Bryan Villarin was the winner of our last drawing and spent some free quality time with the Canon 85mm f/1.8 USM.

Here’s what you have to do:

Leave a comment describing which lens you would like to rent and why you want to rent it. Leave a valid email address so that we can contact you if you win (your email address will remain private and is used for no other purpose).
Open to U.S. residents only.
The winner will need to place an order online with a valid credit card number to receive the rental. The card will not be charged but is required to ensure that the lens is returned. BorrowLenses.com is a reputable business but if you don’t feel comfortable with this condition please don’t enter.
The offer excludes super telephoto lenses and camera bodies.

That’s it! The comments will remain open until midnight on Tuesday March 17th, 2009. After that, BorrowLenses.com will choose a winner and we’ll announce it here. Good luck! And a big thank you to BorrowLenses.com for sponsoring this giveaway.

I am spending a week in the Badlands of South Dakota in April. The Canon EF 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6L IS would be a fantastic lens to have on this trip!

I want to try the Canon EF 24mm 1.4 II to see if it’s the right lens before i buy it.

Nikon 200mm f/2.0 If-ED AF-S VR

This lens would be perfect for showing the wonders of the Roller Derby. Nice and wide, as the action is indoors in a rink w/ bad lighting conditions, VR to cover any shake I have w/ the excitement of the game, and telephoto enough that I don’t get splattered by the girls while they are playin’

I would like try out the TS-E 24mm f3.5L
tilt-shift is a style that is something not many people will go into, unless it’s through photoshop.

and making interesting pictures is all i’m up for.

the Nikon 10.5mm f/2.8 AF DX Fisheye would make an excellent tool in my current 365 Day project, where i am taking one self portrait a day for one year. As i live in Georgia, and the weather is getting nicer, and many of my shots are moving outdoors… a fisheye would be really amazing to play with as spring takes hold, and the colors of the landscape begin to glow. I’ve been dying to shoot a fisheye for awhile, as im thinking about adding one to my camera bag.
